Jeffords sez Bush ''just wants a war''...
While some Americans viewed U.S. President George W. Bushâs State of the Union address Tuesday, January 29, as a declaration of war on Iraq, France and Russia welcomed his offer to reveal evidence incriminating Iraq.
That's their "out" after their Neville rhetoric...
U.S. Senator Jim Jeffords, an independent from Vermont, remained seated shaking his head late Tuesday as lawmakers around him stood to applaud Bushâs speech. âAs far as Iâm concerned he declared war on Iraq tonight,â said Jeffords, who stands politically with Sammy opposition Democrats. âHe left himself no out other than going to war. It sounds like heâs not listening to anyone. He wants war. He just wants a war.â
"Why would he want something like that? So Sammy's got a few weapons of mass destruction? So he slaughters Kurds and political opponents? So he invaded Kuwait? I mean, if he was to do something, it probably wouldn't be anybody I knew who got killed or maimed. It can't happen here, after all..."
